Re: free showdown raise
I'm still curious if folding pocket pairs >4 is the main reason to raise or if there is more to it.

Re: free showdown raise
I meant I'd be more likely to call down (as opposed to taking your line) if he'd bet every street with a draw.

Re: free showdown raise
Since the villain is relatively aggressive, I often just call down here, figuring I'm either way behind a king/pocket pair or I'm way ahead of a flush draw/big cards that whiffed. I'd be more likely...

Re: 66 vs bluff-raising LAG
I didn't take the c-c/c-c/b-c line because I already had the lead, he was capable of folding the flop, but he was also taking a free card quite often here if checked to, and my hand was pretty...

66 vs bluff-raising LAG
Opponent is 43/15/2 over <100 hands. More importantly, he has been making LOTS of odd turn bluff/semibluff raises and displaying other seemingly out-of-place aggression. Preceding this, I have...

Re: How bad is this river value raise?
Are other people playing K8o in this spot? I would toss this in the muck without a thought.
On the river, even against this guy, I would just call because I don't think I'm good >50% of time I...

Re: Small pairs against lag
Most of the time I would just raise the flop, but this guy was really flaky (giving up randomly on the flop) and I didn't want him to go away.

Small pairs against lag
Villain in both cases is LAG (55/20/5), but weirdly so. He seems to fold a very long string of hands preflop then suddenly wake up and cap w/ trash hand after hand. Similarly, he'll just fold alot...

Re: Waiting til the turn to protect my hand
Once SB and BB put money in on the turn, they are probably going to call a raise for one more anyway... certainly if they have any kind of reasonable draw to a good second best hand. And if they hit...

Re: AK TPTK + gutshot, crappy board
You'd bet the turn and fold to a river bet or check behind on the turn and fold to a river bet?

Re: too aggressive with KK?
The only real concern is that MP has AA, right? Given his low preflop aggro he's probably got AA, AK, KK, QQ, JJ (maybe AQs/AJs?) I usually bet the turn because I'd rather not have AK-JJ check it...

Re: Flopped top two...
1.38 aggression for his VPIP means he has a little bit of aggro in him, no? The check-3bet is quite the power move though. I still don't think I can find a fold either, however.

Re: QQ- Do I bet the turn???
If he were a good player (which obviously he's not) the check-raise looks more like trying to protect a made hand than a flush draw. UTG looks more like he may be drawing.
I would bet the turn....

Bet this river?
Villain here is 50/10/1 over about 100 hands. Against most people he's just calling and cold-calling happily, but I think he's starting to hate me a bit, so maybe he could be getting out of line.

Re: Cap preflop to get heads up w/ 88 here?
Yeah, I wasn't worried about getting SB's last $5. My intent was to try to get it heads up but on reflection that was just dumb.
My best move in this hand was catching an 8 on the flop...
